This news is very important for the farmers taking benefit of the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana. It is noteworthy that crores of farmers across the country have so far availed the benefit of 16 installments of Rs 2000 each. Now farmers are waiting for the 17th installment of this scheme.
According to reports, the government can send the 17th installment of this scheme to the bank accounts of farmers in the month of June or July. However, no official information has been given by the government in this regard. However, media reports suggest that this installment will be transferred to the bank accounts of farmers only after the upcoming Lok Sabha elections. Lok Sabha elections are to be held in the months of April and May, so accordingly the next installment of PM Kisan Yojana will be available only in the month of June or July.
Here it must be kept in mind that those farmers who have not yet got their land records verified and e-KYC done for this scheme, will have to remain deprived of it. Let us tell you that to avail the benefits of Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana, it is necessary for the eligible farmers to get their e-KYC done. Without this, farmers cannot avail the benefits of the scheme. To get e-KYC done, you can go to the CSC center or bank near you. If you want, you can complete the e-KYC process through PM Kisan Portal sitting at home.
